> Kyiv cannot hold out forever. They don't have to. They only have to hold out longer than the Russians. In the north, the Russians are running out of supplies and their logistics is halted so they are not going to get more supplies any time soon. In the south, Russia appears to have better logistics and they are still moving, but slower and slower. Their southern logistics is the railroad through Crimea - that is a major weak point. They have been trying with all their might to take Mariupol which would give them an alternative (albeit road-based) logistics path but have been fought to a standstill there too. Meanwhile, Ukraine has an open logistics path through Poland all the way to the front lines (uncontested by Russia, unlike Russia's logistics paths which are long and vulnerable) and military supplies are pouring in. Ukraine is getting stronger and the Russian troops are running out of men, diesel, food, and probably ammunition.
